Campestral Ancestral L'Orange | Cadiz, Spain
The L'Orange ismade exclusively with grapes Palomino from the Guadalquivir Valley, and by ‘ancestral methods’ that include fermentation with skins.
Only 400 bottles are produced per year, making it an exclusive gem.
The carbonation – sparkle – is generated in a single fermentation process, starting in tank and ending in the bottle; unlike Cavas and Champagnes that do it in two stages. For this reason, no other product than wine is added, and it is a more natural process.
Palomino Fino grapes, which are used for making most sherries, are sourced from vineyards planted on albariza (light, chalky) soil in the town of Trebujenain the north of DO Jerez. Fermentation is in stainless steel tanks, the wine is bottled before the end of the fermentation in order to keep a natural carbonation in the bottle. After 9 months “rima”, in contact with the fermentation lees, the wine is disgorged to expel the remains of the lees and bottled with a metal crown-cap to retain the carbon dioxide gas in the bottle.
